alt Hacker NewsI just tested this with Deepseek in Nvidia's AI sandbox and in Groq (so the inference was performed in the US) and it happily told me what happened on June 4, 1989. Stop spreading disinformation.

I've been told by people running Qwen locally in production that they'll have downtime incidents if it's required to think about anything with any implication that Taiwan is a separate country.
Qwen will refuse usually. Even more hideously, if you just ask it in general terms about anything historically interesting that happened on Tiananmen Square, it will remember 1989 in its CoT, and (usually) then decide to not mention it because it's "controversial".
However, it's fairly easy to argue the model into admitting that it's unethical to do so and get it to talk.
